Hook starter: As pupils enter the room the presentation will display an autonomously moving spot light to reveal a picture clue of a raging fire to hint about the context of the lesson. Learning Intention and differentiated outcomes (SMSC). The lesson starts by covering the bigger picture. Pupils will watch a short 10 minute video explain what The Reichstag Fire was and the theories surrounding it. Pupils' will then work in teams and study evidence packs to sort the different views regarding who started the fire. Pupils then combine with like minded pupils to explain (using the evidence) their overall opinion. Pupils explain how the different parts of the Enabling Act helped Hitler consolidate his power. Pupil's then consolidate their judgment through answering a structured 8 mark exam style question. If time I then ask my pupils to peer assess with WW / EBI. Instructions and advice on how they lesson is to run can be found in the description of the presentation. All video links are provided.

This lesson has been designed for the GCSE Edexcel New Scheme (1-9) All outcomes are linked with Paper One’s Assessment Objectives 1 & 2.

This pack contains two lessons. Lessons outcomes are: Expected: To study the life of a famous Naval soldier. (SMSC) Challenge: To explain a famous battle at sea, its causes and consequences. Stretch: To use source evidence to support an exam style question. The first lesson consists of a case study regarding Jack Cornwell and his importance to a ‘famous naval battle’. At the age of only 16, he was posthumously awarded the Victoria Cross and was the youngest British to take part in the battle). Pupils will study his story from a cut out card sort activity catagorising information about his life. Pupils then reassemble to card sort into a jigsaw to reveal that he died as a result of the Battle of Jutland. Pupils are then encouraged to complete further research about other British men who fought in the battle (computers will be required of this, otherwise I have set it as a Homework). The second lesson allows pupils to study source evidence (primary and secondary) to help reach the lessons outcomes. Pupils then consolidate the past 2 lessons with an exam style question. Then pupils can use the success criteria to peer assess with WW / EBI to identify areas of improvement regarding their extended writing. The presentation itself is aesthetically pleasing and engaging with lots of colour including moving Giff images. All videos are embedded (links also provided). I highly recommend having an ‘interactive’ station for the second lesson as there is a fantastic website (link included) which allows pupils to listen to first hand accounts of the battle from survivors. The lessons finish with how the Battle is remembered today 100 years on.

The lesson begins with a hook song (Strange Fruit) pupils enter to this song and consider the lyrics to hook them into the lesson - what is the song about? Through a Geography & Literacy link; pupils consider what ‘white supremacy’ means and why was the idea of it so prominent in the south? Pupils are then introduced to the KKK through a video (embedded) which identifies a case study of one of the horrific crimes they committed. Pupils are then set off on their main task: Depending on your class the main task for this lesson could take many forms, some suggestions are: Pupils could work in teams and study evidence (11 pieces of evidence included) around the room to create a fact file on the experience KKK (Prize for best one). Or pupils could work independently recording what they have learnt from the evidence in their books. Pupils will then have the knowledge they will need to assist in their exam style question plenary or homework (mark scheme included) which the teacher can then use to assess progress.

The purpose of this lesson is to show pupils how the Gulf of Tonkin Incident and then resolution acted as a trigger for the start of the Vietnam War. Pupils will begin by studying a primary document of a telephone conversation between President Johnson and the President's Special Assistant for National Security Affairs regarding the incident.

Pupils will then consider the bigger picture of the other events which led up to the outbreak of war - identifying and explaining them from past lessons before being encouraged to judge the most significant reason. Pupils will then demonstrate their knowledge with an exam style question linked the the Edexcel scheme either in lesson of for homework. All videos are embedded with instructions for activities to be found within the PowerPoint presentation. Please see my story for other Vietnam resources.

Lesson Plan: Pupils watch a choice of videos to then chronologically arrange a card sort into the events of the day. The main task is literacy relay where pupils will work in teams to answer the questions related to the lessons learning intention. Finally pupils will form a personal judgment regarding: Did the USA deserve all the blame for 9/11? Videos are embedded into the presentation, however I have also provided the links for these as well. I have used this lesson to form part of my history lesson on terrorism through time, however this could also be used for RE / Social Studies / PSHE.

The aim of this lesson is to introduce the concept of ‘Black Power’ to pupils. The lesson begins with pupils inferring and discussing a source of evidence showing a black man tied down by the non-violent events which has happened so far during the Civil Rights Movement - this leads into the introduction of the need for violence to achieve black peoples aims. Pupils watch a short video on the Mexico Olympics of 1968 to help introduce this – before being introduced to the Black Panthers through a listening activity from an interview with Huey Newton and a study of the Panthers 10-point programme. The main task involves pupils studying a card sort and categorizing the successes and failures of the movement. Pupils could mix - pair - share to help do this or simply working individually or in pairs before forming an overall judgment on the success of the movement. Pupils then consolidate their learning with a short video before answering an exam style balanced answer statement question. Further advice can be found in the description of the presentation - all videos are embedded (links also provided).

Link this then to some other major concepts associated with Ford (8 more in total), students to play a memory activity to remember them initially which then flows into a game of taboo - all explained in the PP. Students can then watch another video and tick off where they can spot their newly learned words / concepts whilst watching. Following this students are asked to complete an exam style question to explain the impact ford had being challenged to use as many words as possible, easily adapted structure strips provided for differentiation. Finish with ‘learn beyond the lesson’ option for further stretch and challenge.
